The Performance is not cancelled by Jean-Pierre Martinez
The performers of a struggling theatre company are just minutes away from taking the stage to perform a play about Molière’s final hours. However, nothing is ready, and more problems keep arising. To add to the chaos, the box office takings suddenly disappear. Now faced with a critical decision, should they cancel the performance, delivering the final blow to their theatre company already on the verge of bankruptcy? Or should they persevere and carry on with the play, no matter the challenges?
